THE CLIMATE-FRIENDLY LIFE
Micaela O’Herron, Founder of Social Closet, Software Engineer, NYC
I remember that I was bragging to my brother about how I live a low carbon lifestyle, because I don’t own a car. His response to me was ‘but yeah look at all the clothes you buy’, and he told me how much water went into creating a t-shirt. That was eye opening for me.

I'm Jeremy. For me, moving towards more environmentally-friendly practices all started with a mindset shift. I started small and focused on marginal positives. It felt less overwhelming that way.

Tanya Gabrielle Gonzalez | Co-Founder, EAUSO | Product Marketer | San Francisco
I always considered myself a mindful consumer, someone who paid attention to what they purchased, carried their own water bottle, bagged things up in totes, you know that whole thing. But it wasn’t until the city of San Francisco forced me to break down my waste that I finally realized just how trashy I really was.

"I don't care how profound that scene from American Beauty was, I don't see a positive spin on anything that physically cannot be broken down."
